Aliso, Stratovolcano in Andean region, Ecuador
The Aliso volcano reaches an elevation of 3,482 meters and contains a semicircular western ridge with several lava domes across its structure.
Scientific studies have revealed two significant eruptions at Pumayacu during the Holocene period, with one occurring 4,400 years ago and another after 2,000 years.
The volcano region supports local agricultural practices through its mineral-rich volcanic soil, which has influenced farming methods in surrounding communities.
Access to the volcano requires careful planning due to its remote location in the eastern section of the Andes, near the Antisana volcano.
The mountain features both tundra environments and cloud forests, creating distinct ecological zones at different elevations.
